Bradford City defender Rory McArdle has scooped the League One Player of the Month award for December.
The 27-year-old scored one goal in four games last month as Bradford extended their unbeaten run to nine matches in all competitions.
The Bantams took 10 points from a possible 12 in the league to maintain their hopes of qualifying for the playoffs.
Bradford are back in League One action on Saturday when they entertain Rochdale.
